  • Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does a cage trailer cost?
    A 6x4 galvanised cage trailer starts from $2,200. 7x5 models cost $2,800-4,000. 8x5 tandem-axle cage trailers range from $4,000-6,000. Cage extensions for existing box trailers cost $300-700 depending on size and height.
    Can I add a cage to my existing box trailer?
    Yes, cage extensions are available for most standard box trailer sizes. They attach via pin or bolt-on brackets along the top rail of the box trailer. Ensure the cage is compatible with your trailer dimensions and that the added volume doesn't lead to overloading.
    What's the maximum load I can carry in a cage trailer?
    The cage height increases volume but the weight capacity remains the same as the base trailer. A 6x4 cage trailer might hold 3 cubic metres of space but can only carry 600-750 kg. Lightweight bulky loads like garden waste rarely exceed the weight limit, but soil and rubble fill the cage well under the volume limit.
    Are cage trailers road legal?
    Yes, registered cage trailers are fully road legal. The load must be contained within the cage and not extend beyond the trailer dimensions. Use a cargo net or tarp over the top for loose lightweight items that might blow out at speed.

    About Cage Trailers in Australia

    Cage trailers are the go-to choice for bulky, lightweight loads — garden waste, furniture, cardboard, and general rubbish that needs containing without a rigid box. The open mesh cage keeps everything secure while allowing visibility of the load from all angles.

    TrailerHub lists cage trailer dealers across Australia. Compare fixed-cage and removable-cage designs, single-axle and tandem-axle models, and cage heights from 600mm to 1200mm. Many cage trailers are sold as box trailer + cage extension packages.

    The removable cage design is particularly popular because it gives you two trailers in one — a flat-deck or box trailer for heavy, low-profile loads, and a high-sided cage trailer for bulky light loads like green waste and moving boxes.

    Why Choose Verified Cage Trailers?

    Cage trailers carry significantly more volume than box trailers for the same footprint. A 7x5 box trailer with a 900mm cage extension holds roughly double the volume of the box alone, making single-trip waste removal feasible for most household cleanouts.

    The mesh cage design lets rain drain through rather than pooling on tarps, and provides airflow that prevents mould on stored materials. For tip runs, many waste facilities prefer cage trailers because they can see the load contents without requiring you to untarp.

    Buyer's Guide

    Choose a cage trailer with a removable cage that attaches to the box trailer via pins or bolts. This gives you maximum flexibility. Fixed-cage designs are stronger but limit the trailer to cage-only use.

    Cage height is a trade-off: taller cages carry more but catch more wind. 600mm suits most household use. 900mm is the sweet spot for regular green waste and furniture. 1200mm is for commercial waste removal.

    Check the mesh opening size — smaller openings prevent leaves and small items from escaping during transport. A hinged or removable rear panel makes unloading easier than a full cage that requires lifting items over the top.
